Nick Saban's rant on Alabama-Georgia Southern game in 2011

Alabama coach Nick Saban goes off on a rant about the 2011 game against FCS Georgia Southern in which his Crimson Tide defense, stocked with NFL talent, surrendered 302 rushing yards against the Eagles.

The thing that’s the best is that Saban remembers Georgia Southern running through them more than winning the national championship lol

I’m a Georgia Southern fan, thank you for the respect Nick Saban! 😁😁😁

[ibleedcrimson]

hes 100% accurate on the Georgia Southern game. The wofe and i were at that game. They put up more pts on Bama than any other team Bama played that year

[dylann]

Yes… I do come back and watch this every so often.
I know i’m not the only one 🤣

I'm a huge Bama fan and I remember that game well. Ga. Southern is a gutsy little program, but big time winners, great tradition, etc. They won my ongoing respect that day, they came into Bryant-Denny unintimidated and brought their A game.

[KTKZon]

And that came from the man himself...HAIL SOUTHERN til the day I DIE!!!!

[calvinbartlett]

I'm a UGA fan but that's classic Saban

That triple-option attack is no joke!! If you're don't approach it with a serious plan of combating it, you're in for a long day!!

Big Buckeyes fan here but this rant by Nick Saban was classic. Had me doubled over laughing. Gotta love his candor.

[hostility]

Not a Bama fan but this is why Saban is the best coach in college football and why bama keeps winning. Does not accept sub par play against any opponent. You better bring your A game for him each Saturday doesn’t matter if it’s versus a ranked team or an fcs team.

[Bossrich]

i was there, they ran the triple option flawlessly, reminded me of someone else.

[DDGVET]

In my opinion this was Nick's best rant ever at a media that was lucky to graduate kindergarten. I just wish this version hadn't been censored.

[gytkevbo]

I would have loved to see AP run against that defense. GSU for life

[tyrellsoderberg]

Mora: PLAYOFFS?!?!
Edwards: You play to win the game!!!
Gundy: I''M A MAN!!! I'M
Saban: Could not stop them...Could not stop them...Could not stop them!!!!

[uhrider]

This is by far my favorite rant from Nick Saban throughout his whole 17 years at Alabama. He was dead on target with his philosophies and I love him for that.

[BigManBoss]

I can’t stop laughing every time I watch this 😂

Saban came into the press conference only wanting to talk about that and just hijacked the dude’s question 😂😂

[jonlohrenz]

I’m sure Saban also remembers his Michigan State team getting pummeled 50-10 by Nebraska’s triple option in 1995.

[danstennis]

Lace them cleats tight when you play the eagles.

[melissaholland]

I freaking LOVE Saban!!!! Never satisfied. Never happy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 He's the GOAT 🐐

[kenberry]

The triple option offense, when run well, can be the great equalizer in games such as this one.
